Links between pages
Wiki pages link to each other by path. When the pages are joined into one document those links should become jump links to the matching heading, not dead text or links back to the live wiki. A link that points at a page you did not export is left as a normal link.
Images and attachments
Images in a wiki live in an attachments folder and are referenced by relative path. A useful export fetches each referenced image and embeds it in the document, so the file still works when you email it.
Things worth checking after export
- Pages with spaces in their names or attachment names.
- Images pasted from the clipboard, which have generated names.
- Wide tables, which may need landscape sections in Word.
- Mentions, which appear as plain names rather than live links.
Large wikis
A wiki with hundreds of pages makes many requests. Export a subtree first to check the output, then run the full export once you are happy with the layout.
